Elvis fled Cuba after being completely frustrated with his situation on the island. He recently said:

“My music is everywhere, but I don’t have a cent to buy something to eat.”

During a performance on April 4, someone tossed a tear gas bomb onto the stage to put an end to his concert. Feeling the pressure of constantly being censored, Elvis decided to risk it all and head out to Miami via the treacherous 90 miles of ocean.

Elvis has reached a surprising level of success given his residence in Cuba. His songs La Tuba and La Mulata are definitely considered hits and it saddens us that nobody knows his whereabouts for sure.

We pray for his safety.
